Hey thanks, Alex. Actually it happened that I went to Fry's Electrontics to see if I could find a SmartGlove for a friend and decided to check to see if I could find Deus Ex - sure enough I got it for $12.99 from Sold-Out Company.

Skanky Burns, you highly recommend Thief 2? Not the first game, Thief? I've heard great stuff about those games too.

They optimised the game fonts for the xbox too. Considering that expected revenue for the pc version was only 10%, they didn't feel it was worth the effort apparently.

Barinthus: I recommend the first version much higher than Thief 2. Thief 2 had the feeling it was somewhat rushed while Thief 1 was perfectly polished. Don't get me wrong though, Thief 2 is highly polished compared to most games available, but not to the same extent that Thief 1 was.

While on the topic, Thief Gold (Thief 1 plus a few extra missions) is highly recommended also but according to Alinestra, the extra missions slow the story down somewhat. Not having played the Gold version, I can't comment.

Thief 3 is quite the mixed bag. The missions are great (well, the first level is quite good), the town between missions is so awful as to turn people off the game completely. I have yet to go back to the game and try the next level due to being in the town.

quote: Originally posted by Skanky Burns Well, lets just say its my favourite game ever. Its a first-person sneaker. In most games you get more powerful as the game goes on, such that in Deus Ex you can shrug off a direct rocket hit and a few seconds later be fully healed again. Not so in Thief. In the final mission, a strong breeze will be able to kill you.

It is great, though not as good as Deus Ex unless thieving is something close to your heart.
